Chapter 1961: Chapter 1951: Liu Jiuhuang vs. Supreme Emperor
"Supreme Emperor!"
Liu Jiuhuang’s serious eyebrows slowly furrowed. She was very familiar with this name. If she guessed correctly, this person should be the one who defected from the Lin Family back then.
"Supreme Emperor is here! Supreme Emperor is here?"
Shen Wuheng’s eyes narrowed, feeling great delight. Supreme Emperor was the Sect Hierarch of the Taishang Sect and one of the fiercest people of this era. His cultivation was at the level of a Saint. Aside from the unknown fate of the Holy War Angel, Supreme Emperor’s strength was almost unmatched in the East. The fact that just two people from the Taishang Sect were so fierce and formidable was enough to prove how formidable Supreme Emperor was.
"Since you’re here, why not come out and have a meeting?"
Liu Jiuhuang soared into the sky. She had already captured the aura of the Supreme Emperor. If it were Liu Jiuhuang in her prime, she could still battle the Supreme Emperor evenly. Now, with Supreme Emperor’s sudden appearance, it seemed somewhat unfathomable. Who knows just how high Supreme Emperor’s skill really is. Moreover, as long as he’s not a Saint, Liu Jiuhuang dares to fight. That’s how confident she is.
Shua~
As the words fell, a swift figure suddenly appeared before Liu Jiuhuang; it was a middle-aged man dressed in a cyan robe. The man lowered his head, hands behind his back, and his stooped body looked extremely lean and devoid of any spiritual power. But Liu Jiuhuang did not overlook him.
"The number one person of the Liu Clan, Liu Jiuhuang! Hmm, it seems we should be old friends by now. I never thought that after saying goodbye all those years ago, we’d meet again under such circumstances, and in such specific conditions. Truly brings nostalgia and lament."
Supreme Emperor slowly raised his head, and that handsome face gave people a strong sense of familiarity. His face was quite common, wouldn’t attract a second glance in a crowd. But this was the person who fought his way out of the Lin Family back then, and his ferocity was well known in the world.
"Supreme Emperor, there’s no need for so much nonsense. Friend or foe, let’s settle this directly." Liu Jiuhuang had no time for his nonsense.
In such a situation, with Supreme Emperor’s presence, could there be any good news?
"Haha~ Friend or foe it is." Supreme Emperor laughed wildly at the sky twice and said, "If you are willing to stay out of Holy Hall’s affairs, perhaps we could still be friends in the future."
"Friends? I, Liu Jiuhuang, have no friends!" Saying this, she was already manipulating the Immortal Suppressing Tripod suspended above her head. Whatever the Supreme Emperor’s identity, better to obliterate first. That’s how decisive she is, not one to waste words.
"Liu Jiuhuang, you’re courting death!" Shen Wuheng took two steps forward, his gaze icy. Especially upon seeing his Immortal Suppressing Tripod being controlled by her, it was undoubtedly a heavy slap to his face. What a disgrace, him being the Sect Master of the Divine Sky Sect. Now, even the sect’s Immortal Suppressing Tripod had been taken by her. If news of this got out, the millennia-old reputation of the Divine Sky Sect would be utterly ruined by Shen Wuheng, scorned by the world.
"Then come on!"
Liu Jiuhuang no longer had the patience to endure them. Holy Hall was now in urgent crisis. Saying more was pointless, better to decide the outcome with a battle.
"Shua~"
Shen Wuheng’s eyes burned, targeting his own Immortal Suppressing Tripod, and he charged out swiftly.
"It seems our grudge must come to an end today." Supreme Emperor shook his head helplessly, his face filled with a bitter smile.
He had known Liu Jiuhuang for decades, yet Liu Jiuhuang was cold-hearted and the Mother Empress of the Liu Clan, rarely interacting with the outside world.
If Liu Jiuhuang truly fell today, the world would have one less familiar face for Supreme Emperor from the same generation.
"Suppress!"
With the Immortal Suppressing Tripod in hand, he felt so suppressed that Shen Wuheng could almost cry. Clearly, the Immortal Suppressing Tripod was his weapon, yet in Liu Jiuhuang’s hands, it yielded even greater power than when in his own.
"Shua!"
Supreme Emperor stepped forward slowly, and in his right hand appeared his weapon, the Forget Love Sword. With a casual sweep of the Forget Love Sword, an exquisite purple arc slashed through the midair.
The purple arc appeared soft, seemingly devoid of lethality. Yet the Divine Rainbow carved by this sword, if encountered, promised certain death~
The Immortal Suppressing Tripod clashed with the Divine Rainbow released by the Forget Love Sword, detonating layer upon layer of purple energy waves.
Shen Wuheng, the Great Wilderness Saint Master, and the Qingchi Saintess disrupted Liu Jiuhuang’s focus from the sides.
Bang~
The Immortal Suppressing Tripod was slashed away from the Void by the Forget Love Sword.
Whew!
Shen Wuheng soared into the sky, delighted to see the Immortal Suppressing Tripod freed from Liu Jiuhuang’s grasp. But as he ascended, Liu Jiuhuang pursued.
She struck a Divine Rainbow blast on Shen Wuheng’s abdomen. Bang! Shen Wuheng spat blood, now achieving a distance from the Immortal Suppressing Tripod.
Like a cannonball, he plummeted downward.
"Liu Jiuhuang!"
But meanwhile, Supreme Emperor leapt into the air, chasing Liu Jiuhuang. A sword sliced a massive beam in the sky, dazzling and radiant, formed by converging endless Elemental Power into a white dragon, pursuing Liu Jiuhuang.
Just as Liu Jiuhuang repelled Shen Wuheng, she could not react in time.
"Nine Phoenix Domain!"
In crisis, Liu Jiuhuang could only expand her domain to counter.
"Bang!"
The domain shattered, and just as Liu Jiuhuang reached for the Immortal Suppressing Tripod, she was injured by a strike from Supreme Emperor, narrowly missing the Immortal Suppressing Tripod.
"A good opportunity!"
"Kill her!"
The Great Wilderness Saint Master and the Qingchi Saintess exchanged glances, their eyes flashing cold light. In this situation, if Liu Jiuhuang wasn’t killed, it’d be such a waste of time.
Swoosh swoosh...
The Great Wilderness Saint Master and the Qingchi Saintess both dashed into the sky, preparing to deliver a fatal blow to Liu Jiuhuang.
"Ah!!!" Suddenly, Liu Jiuhuang plummeted, erupting into a layer of fierce, dazzling blood light. As the Great Wilderness Saint Master and the Qingchi Saintess neared, the light’s glare was blinding, preventing them from even opening their eyes.
"What’s going on!" The Great Wilderness Saint Master heavily furrowed his brow, lifting his hand to shield his eyes. The glare was so piercing he couldn’t even lift his eyelids.
The Qingchi Saintess was faring no better. The dazzling light left her extremely disheveled.
"Be careful!"
Shen Wuheng’s voice came through. But it was too late. A beam of light descended ferociously upon the two. Screaming, they were blasted away.
Immediately, Supreme Emperor pursued.
"Emperor Domain!"
After Supreme Emperor opened his domain, all the glaring lights failed to stop him.
"Liu Jiuhuang, surrender now." Supreme Emperor blocked Liu Jiuhuang’s retreat, hands behind his back, with the Forget Love Sword circling him, forming a shield of Sword Gang that obscured his face from view.
"Surrender? Just by your mere words?" Liu Jiuhuang snorted coldly, her indifferent eyes exuding a murderous aura. Her cultivation was evenly matched with Supreme Emperor’s. If she were at her peak, there’s no guarantee the Supreme Emperor could prevail over her.
